Developers API Guide

Overview

TheCoin.pw Exchange provides a simple and powerful REST API to allow you to programatically perform nearly all actions you can from our web interface. All requests use the application/json
content type and go over https. The base url is https://trade.thecoin.pw/api/{version}/. All requests are GET requests and all responses come in a default response object with
the result in the result field. Always check the success flag to ensure that your API call succeeded.

We are currently restricting orders to 500 open orders and 200,000 orders a day. We reserve the right to change these settings as we tune the system.

If you have any questions, feedback or recommendation for API support you can post a question in our support center.

General

We provide a simple RESTful API. All calls are GETs and should be called via https. We will support n-1 versions of the API. Our current stable API is v1. The endpoints have a standard format as follows:

https://trade.thecoin.pw/api/{version}/{method}?param=value

Authentication

In the spirit of keeping things simple, we offer an easy to manage API Key authentication method.
You can have multiple API keys, each with their own level of rights. To manage your API keys please goto
Settings->Manage API Keys. API Rights

Read Info - You can only view the balances, orders, and other details of the account

Trade Limit - This allows the API key to place LIMIT buy and sell orders

Withdraw - We allow you to programatically withdraw any currency to an address you provide. This can be used to quick arbitrage exchanges or move money into cold storage after thresholds.

For this version, we use a standard HMAC-SHA512 signing. Append apikey and nonce to your request and calculate
the HMAC hash and include it under an apisign header.
Note: the nonce is not respected right now but will be enforced later.
